Habronattus Male - Habronattus mataxus - Male
Padre Island / Corpus Christi, Texas, USA
March 19, 2009
I just can't seem to figure out which Habronattus this little guy is...

Found him on some plants in the dunes right next to the beach (maybe 70 feet away or so from the water)...

I discovered several of these little Habronattus around on these plants on Padre Island...

Any ideas?

I would suspect
something in the agilis group. Looks real similar to Maddison's cognatus images.

Might actually be mataxus, also similar, and I think is the only one found along the coast there.(map)

Great series!
